Frequently Asked Questions

Is converting TXT to MD free?+
Converting TXT to MD requires the Filoshi desktop app, which is a one-time $14.90 purchase. This gives you unlimited conversions across 3,332+ format pairs with no subscription or per-file fees.
Does converting TXT to MD lose quality?+
It depends on the formats involved. If both TXT and MD use lossless compression, no quality is lost. If the conversion involves a lossy format, some quality reduction may occur, but Filoshi uses optimized settings to keep quality loss minimal. The conversion runs entirely on your machine, so there are no server-side compression artifacts.
Can I convert TXT to MD without uploading my file?+
Absolutely. Filoshi processes everything locally on your computer. Your TXT files are never uploaded to any server. The desktop app bundles all conversion engines and works completely offline.
How long does it take to convert TXT to MD?+
Most conversions complete in seconds. Larger files (like high-resolution video) may take a bit longer depending on your computer's hardware. Since Filoshi runs locally, there is no upload or download wait time, which is significantly faster than online converters.
Can I batch convert multiple TXT files to MD?+
Yes, the Filoshi desktop app supports batch conversion. You can drop an entire folder of TXT files, select MD as the output format, and convert them all at once. Each file gets its own progress bar.
